LANGFANG, CHINA — A town in northern China is really getting into the Christmas spirit this year by banning it.

Officials from Langfang in the Hebei province have ordered that all festive decorations be torn down, while shops have been banned from selling Christmas junk to "maintain stability," according to the SCMP.

The statement from the fun-loving city management office also asked the public to snitch on anyone "spreading religion" in parks and squares.
It also said that anyone caught selling Christmas trees, wreaths, stockings or Santa Claus figurines would be punished.
Stores are also prohibited from holding Christmas performances or promotional sales.
But honestly, what's the point of banning something that almost no one in Asia—outside of some expats—celebrates?
Guess the only Ho Ho Ho's you'll be hearing are people with that last name.
